Leon gasped and immediately turned around. "Gosh, why do I have to meet them here now?" He was afraid that they would recognize Leon and end up with Leon's identity being revealed. He wouldn't let that happen.Jasmine was busy with her cell phone. She got a sudden call from her assistant. With a sigh, she put the cell phone away from her ear. Her gaze turned to Anastasia."Claudia made a mistake. I have to book rooms for two staff members who haven't registered yet," said Jasmine."Maybe Claudia is very tired, that's why she lost her focus," replied Anastasia.The two women came to the reception desk to book a new room for the staff. Leon and Elena were still there. Leon's heart beat fast when he saw the two women approaching him.The receptionist immediately turned her gaze towards Jasmine and Anastasia. She smiled to greet them and put aside her duties to help Elena for a moment."Good morning, Miss Anastasia and Miss Jasmine," she greeted them."Good morning. I want to book two add
Claire chuckled. "Leon, you must be very happy now because you have a woman who is willing to defend you. Isn't this your dream all along?" Claire teased."We don't have any business, Claire. Stop insulting me! I'm not as bad as you think." Leon looked at Claire with a firm gaze."Okay, I just want to see how long she wants to be with you." Claire snorted and left.Leon watched Claire leave while taking a deep breath. Elena looked at him, she didn't want a sad expression on her man's face."Please, Leon, don't listen to her. I promise to always stay by your side. She only talks about herself, while I never think like that," said Elena while inserting a reassuring smile between the corners of her lips.With sparkling eyes, Leon smiled at her. "Thank you, Elena. I'm so happy to be with you."Not long after, Elena's time for the interview arrived. She entered the HRD room. Elena walked with a friendly smile, even though her heart was beating fast with nervousness. She tried to apply what
Today was Elena's first day at work. She tried to follow the directions of the other staff and managed to do her job quite well.Claire entered the restaurant at the hotel with her assistant, Emma. Her gaze immediately fell on Elena, who was seen serving customers. She was at this hotel for a meeting with her client. After thinking for a long time about which restaurant they would choose for lunch at this hotel, their choice accidentally fell on the restaurant where Elena worked."Oh, so that village girl started working today?" Claire muttered.Emma looked where Claire was staring. She frowned with questions on her mind. "Does Mrs. Claire know that waitress?""Guess, she's someone's new girlfriend." Claire smiled teasingly.Emma narrowed her eyes, watching Elena's face, which was quite clearly visible from her table. Instead of immediately guessing, she actually complimented Elena. "She looks beautiful. Who's her boyfriend, anyway?""She is Leon's girlfriend," Claire answered."What?
Elena was taking additional plates from the cupboard in the restaurant area. She bent down to open the cupboard and took out three plates. When she stood up, she gasped when she saw Noah who was standing next to her."Sir, what can I help you?" Elena asked spontaneously."Hmm, nothing. I came to you to find out who you are," Noah replied casually."My name is Elena, sir," said Elena with a slight nod."Beautiful name. And my name is Noah Hensen. You must already know about me, right?" Noah came from one of the most prominent families in the city, and he was a VIP member at several well-known clubs and restaurants in Auckland. He was sure that a waitress like Elena would know him.Elena shook her head. "Sorry, sir, but I don't know about you," she said.Noah chuckled. This was the first time a woman in this city didn't know him. "Are you kidding me? That's impossible, you must just be nervous because I approached you.""Sir, but I really don't know who you are. Besides, I've only been i
Jasmine had arrived first at the restaurant where they had an appointment. Five minutes later, Leon arrived there. With quick steps, Leon pulled out a chair and sat down."Sorry for making you wait so long," said Leon."It's okay." Jasmine frowned when she saw the sweat dripping along Leon's hairline. "Leon, where have you been? Didn't your driver come here with you?" asked Jasmine in wonder."I came by taxi," answered Leon with a faint smile.Jasmine took an invitation from her bag and handed it to Leon. "I asked you to meet me to give you this."Leon accepted the invitation while narrowing his eyes. "I thought this was a wedding invitation," he teased."Why would you think like that?" Jasmine blushed when she heard about the wedding invitation because she immediately imagined her wedding to Leon in the future."I'm just guessing. Who knows?" uttered Leon while reading the date on the invitation.Silence paused their conversation for a moment. Jasmine felt that this was the right tim
“Oh, I see. Elena, you can go into your room now. We have to rest," said Leon with a smile.“Okay, Leon.”Leon stepped into his room. When Leon entered his room, Elena immediately threw Noah's business card in the trash can in front of her room."It's almost! If Leon sees this, he'll definitely think I've betrayed him." Elena breathed a sigh of relief.***The next day, after dropping Elena off at work and on the way home, Leon stopped at a flower shop. Today was his day off from work. Leon wanted to cook for Elena and prepare a romantic dinner for tonight.Leon took a stalk of lily and smelled its aroma. He exhaled a long breath. Elena liked lilies more than roses. "This flower is Elena's favorite, she will definitely be very happy if I give it to her."Leon called a florist employee and ordered a bouquet of lilies. While he was waiting, Claire had just arrived at the shop to buy flowers. Seeing her ex-husband's presence, Claire was curious.“What is that loser doing here?” Claire mu
Elena rolled her eyes in annoyance. She sighed and turned to the man. With a flat expression, Elena spoke to him, "Mr. Noah, what are you doing here?"Noah snorted while smiling. “This is a public street, am I not allowed to be here?” he replied."Okay, sir, then I have to go now." She spoke as she got up from her seat. Elena was about to move, but Noah suddenly grabbed her wrist.Elena's eyes widened, she looked at Noah with an annoyed expression. “Please, Master, let me go!” she begged.“Why do you call me so formal? Just call me by my name," asked Noah.“Okay Noah, please let me go now. I want to go home!" Elena ordered."I won't let go of your hand until you answer my question." Noah grinned. Seeing Elena, who kept avoiding him, made his curiosity about that woman grow even more. He had never been that enthusiastic about pursuing a woman before, and he didn't even care about Elena's social status.“Quickly say what you want to say!” Elena exclaimed.“Why didn't you contact me? I'v
"It's possible that Leon was drunk and emotional last night, so he didn't want to listen to me," Elena muttered. She came out of her room and looked at Leon's door.“Is he waking up?” she muttered.Elena took a deep breath and dared herself to go to Leon's room. She knocked on Leon's door and spoke in a low tone. “Leon, please open the door!”There was no answer from inside the room. "Is it possible that Leon is still sleeping?" She knocked harder on the door. “Leon, I know you're still angry with me. But I just want to explain everything to you.”“Leon!” Elena turned the doorknob and was surprised to find that the man's bedroom door was unlocked. She immediately went inside and looked for Leon all over the room.“Leon, are you hiding? Please listen to my explanation!” Elena's voice was sobbing, with tears rolling down her cheeks. She sat limp on the edge of Leon's bed. She hoped that Leon would appear in front of her and listen to her explanation.***In a hospital bed, Leon was lyin
